Ford sack workers and replaced them with AI...

...then had to hire over 350 engineers to fix the quality issues caused by AI.

@perkinsy I went and read the article and for me it reinforces the thought that many CEOs are just plain stupid.

This seem like a systemic reverse-centaur: you can't build "AI-driven inspection systems" with general-purpose LLMs, you can only use LLMs then validate *their* output with other, reliable[1] methods. Whoever decided to use LLMs like that is unfit for the job.

[1] ML-based image classification, trained on a very narrow set of labeling data can be more reliable than a human. Try to achieve the same numbers with LLMs, I'll wait!
